    I'm going to aim for 10lbs. My weight loss has been very slow, it would be great to lose 10lbs in 2 months!

    Actually I just worked the conversion of pounds to kilos and 10pounds is more likely what I can achieve by my progress so far!

    Happy Halloween everyone!!! And happy day 1 of our challenge!

    Good Morning!

    Weighed in at 151.9. I'm going to have to revamp my goal, 18lbs at this point is a little too ambitious. I'll be happy to be down 10 by Christmas!

    Have a wonderful Halloween everyone and good luck this week!

    I weighed in yesterday at 86.2kg. Down from my previous weigh in of 86.7kg (which was up 1kg sadly due to a very bad 8 days!)..Hopefully next week we'll be back down further and going in the downwards direction again.

    Just checking in to say Hello & wish everyone a great Wednesday-night! I forgot to mention that I'm going to Mexico next month so it would be nice to lose ANYTHING by then. I would never dream of 20 pounds though....

    Weigh in day. I've converted to pounds.

    Start weight 191 pounds
    1st Nov 190 pounds
    8th Nov 189 pounds

    I seem steady a pound a week, have had a messy couple of weeks, my eatings not be fantastic and I've skipped some exercise so there is room for improvement....I'm just happy to see the scales going down!

    Anyone else have to sneak peak at the scales inbetween weigh in's to check they are on target?

    I try to avoid it, I find it discouraging to see a gain... On the other hand though, it's pretty motivating to see a loss too!

    True, although one of the reasons I do it so I can catch any gain early - makes me think harder and work harder.
